Abstract
This paper discusses data collected as a result of planning a project to evaluate document recognition and information retrieval technologies. In the process of establishing the project, a Request for Comment (RFC) was widely distributed throughout the document recognition and information retrieval research and development (R&D) communities, and based on the responses, the project was discontinued. The purpose of this paper is to present real data collected from the R&D communities in regards to a real project, so that we may all form our own conclusions about where we are, where we are heading, and how we are going to get there. Background on the project is provided and responses to the RFC are summarized.Citation
